More than 50 British MPs are supporting a parliamentary motion calling on their government to take "urgent action" on getting aid into Gaza and demanding fresh sanctions on Israel . The motion, which was tabled on Tuesday night by Labour MP Richard Burgon, notes "UN reports that tens of thousands of already displaced families have suffered damage to their shelters" in Gaza . It says this has "been made far worse by Israel's widespread destruction of homes, drainage systems and other essential infrastructure that have left most Palestinians in Gaza displaced".
